During my PhD, I worked on evaluating the reactivity of electrolyte additives in Li-ion batteries using gas chromatography, high precision coulometry, impedance spectroscopy, and liquid chromatography. These include the analysis of the liquid components of the electrolyte as well as the composition of the gas produced during cell use. These measurements help correlating the reactivity of electrolyte additives with their effect on cell lifetime improvements. In parallel I am also working on developing novel electrolytes with atypical solvents such as esters. Mainly a new electrolyte system displaying very good graphite and Li transition metal dioxide electrodes passivation as well as good low temperature performance has been developed. These consist on blends of alkyl esters with vinylene carbonates.
